Gen. Pryor Will Fight Their Bat
tie Before the Supreme Court.
NEW YORK, Sept. a3.-Capt. Black,
who arrived from Chicago last night,
was at the office of Gen. Roger A. Pryor
ut II O'Clock this morning to present the
case of the condemned anarchists to the
lawyer, with view to carrying the case
to the United States supreme court.
Gen. Pryor had said that he would not
commit himself to the management of
the case, at least until he
was made thoroughly acquainted
NOT M,' permitted to secure "e the ce Mas
records, but he had made copious notes
of the trial proceedings, and these he
went over with Gen. Pryor. AS the
carrying up of the case will depend
largely, if not entirely, upon Gen. Pry-
or's decision, Capt. Black will doubtless
make the best of all the points he can
disclose. The consultation lasted until
las, when Capt. Black came out
of Gen. Pryor'S sanctum, his
face wreathed in smiles. He would
only say, however: 81 have won Gen
Pryor over, having explained every
thing to his satisfaction and convinced
him of the business of our side" Gen.
Payer said: ST am convinced that the
points taken by Capt. Black are ex-
cellent, and that an application for
writ of error will be granted. l do not
see how the application can b refused,
and we shall not lose mo-
ment in carrying the case to
Washington. l say we for am now
connected with the case. j am confident
that we shall obtain the writ in time to
prevent the execution of the condemned
men. In my Judgment, formed from
Capt. Blacks notes, the record shows so
many errors that no great exertion will
be necessary for us to win. The unex-:
peeted may happen, of course, but l
have no fear.o

Langworthy's iron foundry was de-
stroyed by fire last night, causing loss
of $1,000, which was covered by an i'll

The Greys were received at the depot

oGLEsB US PERPLExITY.

Gov. OGLEsBY is confronted with a
trying responsibility in being called
upon to determine the fate of the seven
Chicago anarchists. If the condemned
men were ordinary criminals the re-
sponsibility of deciding whether seven
human lives shall be offered up in salts
faction of the laws demands is one that
any person would naturally wish to
avoid. But in this instance the reSpon-
sibility is all the greater because of the
extraordinary conditions surrounding
the ease and because of the cenSe-
quenceS that are to result from the gov
ernor'S action. That horrible murder
was committed at the Haymarket is be-
yond all question. That these con-
demned men were largely responsible
for the commission of the crime is
equally clear. But there has been no
positive evidence that they were
the individuals who threw the
bombs that caused the fright
full destruction of life in the Haymarket.
Under the pressure of an infiamed
popular prejudice they were convicted
more on the general principle that the
wretches deserved hanging than from
any direct evidence connecting them
with the crime. In the trial of any
ordinary criminal strict Interpretation
of the law of evidence would have en-
titled the anarchists to the benefit of a
doubt as to their guilt of murder in the
first degree, and the probable judgment
would have been life imprisonment.
These are the facts as Gov. OGLESBY
sees them Oh the one hand. But Oh
the other he is brought face to face
with the fact that these men are not
ordinary criminals. He finds that the
issue in his hands is one of national i'm
portance. While the proof is not clear
that either SPIES or SCAwAB or
any other one of the condemned
men did throw the fatal bomb,
still it is clear enough for the
purposes of justices that they were &C
ceSsories to the crime, and all of them
deserve hanging as richly as the man
who did throw it. If SPIES or SCHwAB
or PARSONS did not throw the bomb it
was because they were too cowardly
and not because willful and. premedi-
Cdltu HiuIutI Mis- HOU Ill their hearts.
There will be no effense to justice in
their case. if the gallows is permitted to
establish its claim to its victims. But
these are MOTT only points that the
governor of Illinois will be forced to
consider in connection with the appeal
that is now being made to him for an
exercise of the executive power to save
the condemned anarchists from the gal
lows. He must look to the probable
effect of his action. 1t is urged On the
one hand that if he permits
them to be hung they will be
canonized as martyrs and that their
blood will be seed from which a plenti-
full crop of anarchism will spring in the
future. On the other hand the argu-
ment is presented that if they are not
hung it will be victory for the anarch-
lists which will encourage the spread of
lawlessness. Gov. OGLEsBY will have
to weigh these arguments and deter
mine which is right. His is position
of grave responsibility, for if he makes
mistake it may be followed by frightful
consequences.
